Materiais didáticos e aulas de Ciências no 8o ano do ensino fundamental

Abstract

The main objective of this course completion work was to identify what are the teaching materials used by teachers in the 8th year of elementary school. As specific objectives we had: to understand how teaching materials used by professors participating in the research contribute to learning related to the daily lives of students in Science classes and if the materials Didactics used by teachers are innovative. For the theoretical foundation of this work, authors such as Krasilckic (2004), Nóvoa (1991), Imbernón were consulted (2011), Carvalho (2006) and (2012), Lorez (2008), among others. The research was based on a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory approach and had the collection of a semistructured questionnaire was given, which was applied between four teachers of Sciences at the Escola Polivalente of Conceição do Almeida/BA. At the end of the study, we found that the teaching material that still dominates the scenario of Science classes is the textbook. Even so, we identified through the speeches of the participating teachers in the research that there is a lack of teaching materials, science laboratories, even though they have emphasized that even with these gaps they seek to innovate in classes, making them attractive and thought-provoking.
